WoodyHayes1951 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 That Northwestern vs Iowa game is tough to pick. I'm gonna go with IOWA even though its low confidence. Huskers, Sparty and Bucks win the other three. Quote Link to comment
clyde40 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Northwestern Iowa-NW gets back on track and wins a close one Nebraska Gophers-Huskers roll Illinois Sparty-Illinois offense has just enough to outduel Mich. St. 7-6 Ohio State Penn State-Close for awhile Ohio State pulls away late Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Illinois Sparty-Illinois offense has just enough to outduel Mich. St. 7-6 Usually the best defense is a good offense. Against MSU, your best defense is their offense. Their defense can actually score pretty well. Quote Link to comment

HuskerShark Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I could see Penn State pulling the upset this weekend. I hope not though, because we'd all have to sit through even more talk about how horrible the B1G is... Quote Link to comment

The B1G is horrible.......they should just give up like the rest of the nation, unless you are in the SEC! Quote Link to comment
Creed Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Last week I was 4-1 Michigan State +24 margin - purdue is epic bad RESULT MSU +14 Michigan +17 - Michigan's talent difference wins this game RESULT +16 (read it and weep whoever called my out last week) Wisconsin + 28 - never been impressed with Illinois' coach; He is making Ron Zook look appealing RESULT Wisc +24 Northwestern + 10 - closest game but haven't seen much from Minny since that opening week close game vs USC 2 years ago RESULT MINN +3 Ohio State +17 - Iowa is better than most think but OSU still wins easily. RESULT OSU +10 THIS WEEK Nebraska +21 margin - Minn is looking better but Nebraska is beginning to gel Iowa +6 - close game but Iowa showed some promise vs OSU Michigan State +17 - Illinois is just plan bad and needs to fire that coach Ohio State +13 - chance of an upset but I think OSU comes out stronger than they did last week.

WoodyHayes1951 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 If there is a school in the Big Ten that has no excuse for being bad its Illinois. High pop state, decent hs football base, huge and powerful alumni base. I guess ND and scUM are the "casual fan" drain on fans in chicagoland but their actual alumni should be able to overcome that.

I guess ND and scUM are the "casual fan" drain on fans in chicagoland but their actually alumni should be able to overcome that. Was raised there, couldn't figure it out for the longest time but the fact is U of I simply doesn't mean as much to the state as tOSU or Michigan. It's just not that appealing for in state recruits to go to Champaign (a long way from Chicago btw). It's fan base isn't good however, it's very much a basketball school (now there's where they have great fans). Most U of I football fans tend to be over 50+ years old also and shrinking in number. It's sad, they could have a great program, but there's just not that much interest in it. Quote Link to comment

But I think PSU has more offensive weapons than Iowa to figure us out. I don't think they win but I'm just venting on the passive defensive scheme and the Lbs inability to cover anything that moves.
